The imbroglio over Obama’s pastor’s sermon—I have thought of the simple explanation which all the media has missed.  It’s punctuation, stupid!  A comma and an explanation mark, which, of course, audio recordings don’t supply, clears up the whole thing.
Here’s what the pastor said:  “God damn, America!”  It’s as innocuous as “Hot dog, is America a great country or what!”
Now, if I can work that into a humor column.  Where are the English teachers when we need them?
